ROBERTO MANCINI will slap Mario Balotelli with a hefty fine after claiming his late night cost him a hat-trick. SunSport exclusively revealed Balo's visit to a strip club less than 48 hours before Saturday's clash against Bolton.
Balotelli netted in City's 2-0 win against the Trotters. But Mancini was fuming with the Italian bad-boy for his unprofessional preparation.
Mancini: "Tomorrow I will speak with him. I am really disappointed about this.
"It is not correct, not only for me and the squad but for him, because he is a professional player.
"He can't stay outside the house two days before a game until two o'clock.
"If it is true we will do the maximum fine that we can.
"Mario played well, he had a lot of chances. Maybe next time if he goes to sleep early he can score three or four goals."
